<i>In situ</i> conversion of a MOG to a crystalline MOF: a case study on solvent-dependent gelation and crystallization
Abhijit Garai, Anindita Goswami, Kumar Biradha
Abstract
The solvent dependent synthesis of single crystals of metal–organic frameworks via the formation of metal–organic gels at high temperature was demonstrated. These results highlight the new methodology to obtain the crystalline MOFs.
